Jesus uttered seven phrases while hanging on the cross- each statement pregnant with meaning. Join pastor Jonathan today as he dives expounds on the rich significance and application of each to your life today!

In this episode, pastor Jonathan expounds on a powerful moment from John 14:30, where Jesus says, “The prince of this world is coming—and he has nothing in Me.”

On the night before the crucifixion, in a quiet, intimate setting around a table, Jesus reveals a profound truth: Satan has no claim on Him—no sin, no debt, no foothold. And yet, He willingly goes to the cross.

We also address an often-overlooked detail in the Gospel accounts. While the Synoptics associate the Last Supper with Passover, John makes it clear the crucifixion happens before the Passover meal. That matters. It shows that Jesus fulfills Passover at the cross—not at the table.

So what is the Lord’s Supper?

Not a continuation of Passover—but a covenant meal.

When Jesus says in Luke 22:20, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood,” He is establishing something new—an ongoing relationship grounded in His sacrifice.

At the cross, the Lamb dies.

At the table, the covenant is shared.

And the reason it works is this:

He had nothing in Him—so He could take everything from us.

What if I told you Jesus didn’t just speak in riddles about the end times… He predicted history down to the very year? On this episode, we dive into the Olivet Discourse—His prophecy from the Mount of Olives—and uncover how Jerusalem’s destruction in AD 70 proves His words true. If Christ was right then, can we trust Him today? Stay tuned.

In a culture that confuses emotion with love and blurs the lines between men and women, what does the Bible actually teach about marriage?

In this episode of 21st Century Acts, we return to the foundation — from Book of Genesis to Epistle to the Ephesians 5 — to examine God’s design for covenant love. What does it mean that the husband is the head of the wife? What does biblical submission look like? Why did Paul ground marital roles in creation order? And how does marriage ultimately reflect Christ and His Church?

This is not a reaction to culture.

It is not an apology for Scripture.

It is a clear, holistic look at what the New Testament actually says — about headship, submission, sacrifice, responsibility, and redemption.

At the center of it all is the “great mystery”: marriage as a living picture of Christ’s covenant love for His bride.

If we want strong families, stable homes, and a faithful Church in the 21st century, we must return to God’s design — not improve upon it.

Listen, reflect, and share.

In Romans 14, Paul addresses the balance between Christian Liberty and Christian Charity. This is a crucial lesson for the maturation of every Christian.

Listen in as Pastor Jonathan expounds on this crucial chapter of God's word.

Does God desire that I pray in tongues? Or is that gift for a select few? Or is it done away with altogether?

I Corinthians 14 is often used by those who have never experienced speaking in tongues as a club against those who do. But the chapter is promoting tongues, not condemning it. Join Pastor Jonathan has he takes a deep dive into this chapter.
